The Jacksonville Jaguars already know which teams they will be facing in 2026, and in less than a week, fans will know the full schedule.
According to Adam Schefter, the NFL will be releasing each team’s full schedule on May 14.
In an analysis of all 32 NFL teams, the Jaguars’ schedule came in the middle, at 15th, in difficulty. While there are some teams that will almost certainly be tough — the Houston Texans, the Philadelphia Eagles, the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Denver Broncos — Jacksonville is also facing teams that should provide easy wins.
However, even teams that look easy can end up being difficult depending on where they fall in the schedule. Dealing with lots of travel, long road trips, a home advantage, or coming fresh off a bye week can all make huge impacts in a team’s performance, even if they are otherwise stronger or weaker teams.
There are also inevitably teams that will end up surprising the league; in 2025, the Jaguars were one of those teams, rebounding from a dismal 4-13 record in 2024 to become a playoff team with a 13-4 record.
Here is who Jacksonville will be facing in 2026.
